| • How to Screen Tenants?? |
| I am about to purchase a house and rent it out. I will be screening prospective tenants as well. I have a connection for credit history to use as the screening process. How do I find out eviction history?? |

| • RE: How to Screen Tenants?? |
| A good way to accomplish this is to gather past landlord info and send notices to inquire about resident history. There is such a notice on this web-site or you can make phone calls. A credit report may also show evictions if the Tenant has been through the court system in the way of a judgement. |

| Receive the permission to obtain a credit report, or inform the tenant that you will do so. That will give insight into the perspective tenants. Most people have some bumps in the road, but major trends should show you something! |

 | "I only wish I had heard of this site sooner. Last month, my claim against a tenant was thrown out of court because the judge said my recordkeeping wasn’t clear enough to prove my case. A week later, I got a referral to this site at a meeting of a local RE investors club. From now on, I’m using EzLandlordForrns.com to make sure I have enough documentation to satisfy the pickiest judges." - Kelly Sweeney, Property Manager |
